Loop recording is such a game changer in this program, rather than having to move over to a DAW. Comping solos right in RB saves a bunch of time. I really think that it's important to do video tutorials about features that are in both RB as well as BIAB, but look different. I can't figure out ACW and manual bar placement in RB, although there is a great video on how to do this in BIAB.

(see my posts/tips in pg tips forum includeing fancy free plugins saveing one a ton of money.) btw re acw try this trick....on a fast song and cos i'm vision impaired what i do is ... import into rb any song already slowed down by 50 per cent. on a fast song it makes it easier to set bar lines. glad your seeing the plusses of rb. its highly underestimated imho. i keep om coming back to it after trying other music apps. ps there are various tricks to discover re audio/midi track editing in rb. for s's and giggles also muck around with duplicating tracks...THE LOOONG RIGHT CLICK OVER A TRACK MENU HAS A PLETHORA OF NICE FEATURES. lots of funky tricks to discover. have a great happy new year. om Last edited by justanoldmuso; 12/31/24 03:23 PM. my songs....mixed for good earbuds...(fyi..my vocs on all songs..) https://soundcloud.com/alfsongs (90 songs created useing bb/rb) (lots of tips of mine in pg tips forum.)
